Anthill House by Kaushal TaTiya Architects in Maharashtra

Kaushal TaTiya Architects has designed the Anthill House in Ahilyanagar, Maharashtra, India, a 7,000-square-foot residence tailored for the region's hot and dry climate. The project, led by architects Kaushal Suresh Tatiya and Sweety Muttha, prioritizes passive design strategies to reduce heat gain, enhance natural ventilation, and minimize reliance on mechanical cooling. The house responds to extreme temperatures, intense sunlight, and low humidity through careful orientation, shading, and material choices. Construction is slated for completion in 2026. The design brief emphasized creating comfortable indoor spaces with minimal energy consumption, reflecting a climate-responsive architectural approach. Photographs by Avesh Gaur document the project. The house is categorized under residential architecture and was curated by Miwa Negoro.
